6ASE BALL.


LowELLs, 6; PoRTLANDs, s.
Yesterdays game was finely played game
in which the Portands excelled in the field
and the Lowells at the bat. Hatfield pitched
steady game, but In one or two innings
was batted quite freely. McGunnigle-"Wily
Mac"-pitched for Lowell and was quite ef-
fective against the champions. 1t was his
first game against them this season, a fact
that no doubt accounts for a great deal Of
his effectiveness. 1t looked for six innings
as If 1t was the Portland's game The score
was then to 2 in their favor, but lucky
streak Of batting In the next inning enabled
the L0wells to tie the score, and another In
the ninth to make the winning run. The
Portlands felded magnifcently. The only
errors made outside the battery were a wild
throw by Thayer and failure by Lufbery
to stop grounder from Higgins bat.
Neither error h0weyer.cost anything. Dick
erson, especially. did fine work. and covered
the territory around second base In a way
that won him lots Of applause. One hot
grounder that he took from Higgins bat was
an excellent stop. Duffey caught q good
game and nailed several pep at second. and
one at third base, Outside OF the third IN
ming the L0wrlis played-a good heldInR
game. Cudw0rth spoiled a two base hit for
Duffey In the first by scooping his low ny off
the ground. and Shinnick made good stop
Of a hard hit ball. Morgan Murphy was
down 0n the card to catch, but In the morn
ing threw his arm out and had to give way
to Guinasso. Tofaing was sick also, and
Duffy played short stop, and Shinnick his old
position onthird. Neither side scored TIL
the third inning, when the Portlands made
three runs. Dlckers0n, Hatfield and Thayer
hit safe and aided by the loose play Of Burns
Higgins aud Guinass0 they all crossed the
plate. In the fifth, Cudworth put the ball
over the right field fence for a home run, and
shinnick did the very same thing IN the
scored one run on a hit by Hatfield, steal and
and couple Of put outs: Their last run
was made by Schoeneck in the sixth, who
hit the ball over the left field isnce for
| home run. The Lowells tied the score In the
seventh. Shinnick got his base on balls af-
ter two men were out, stole second, and
| Guinasso hit safe sending him 10. Dick
| Burns and Hartnett followed with safe hits
| Guinasso and Burns scored and Hartnett
/ was put out at second by SchOeneck who ran
him down. The Portlands made two. hits in
the eighth, but after Galiigan had flied out.
DAWN and Schoeneck were retired ON a
double play. The Lowells would have been
retired In one. two three order In the eighth
but Lufbery let Higgins grounder go by lam
and safe hit by Kennedy followed. But
the next man was out. In the ninth Luf-
berry was thrown out at first, Audrus hit
safe, stole second and went to third ON Dick
erson's put out, but was left there, Hatfield
going out ON a fly. For the Lowells Shinnlek
hit safe to right field, and Guinasso followed
him with single to left, sending Shinniek
10 third. Dick Burns brought In the win
ming run by hit to right field with no one
out. Lynch umpired and gave excellent sat
isfaction. III he had been sent here ON some
| OF the previous occasi0nsuwhen Lowell has
played here, the disagreeable things that
have happened In many Of those games
would have been prevented. The score:
